In Re Marriage of Wahl & Perkins (Cal. Ct. App. - Feb. 2, 2012)

Just because you're a doctor doesn't mean you're smart. Just because you have tens of millions of dollars doesn't mean what you're doing isn't crazy. Just because you think your arguments are wonderful doesn't mean they are. And just because you're an otherwise reasonable attorney willing to cash the retainer checks of someone rich doesn't mean that you can represent a frivolous litigant and not get sanctioned.
